Abstract:
A 45 year-old-women with tracheal stenosis due to an endotracheal tumor was scheduled for tracheal reconstruction surgery. The stenotic lesion was located 1 cm above the carina, and was length of 4 cm and had a narrowest internal diameter of 0.4 cm. The length of such a stenotic segment and its narrowest internal diameter may pose lung ventilation problems before or during tumor resection, which may preclude a successful outcome. Thus, during tracheal reconstruction surgery a femoro-femoral partial cardiopulmonary bypass, self respiration, and pulmonary artery ligation were used. These measures improved oxygenation and cardiovascular stability, and tracheal reconstruction was successfully performed without complication.
